Wait... Almond M&Ms ? Where do you live? I've never saw any almond M&M bags before and I shop for treats often. [/quote] Canada, sometimes they are harder to find. We have different candy here, like our smarties are chocolate with and candy coating.

Sugar is my drug of choice too. Coke is like crack too. I keep one in the fridge and dare myself to not drink it. How long can I make it last? 2 weeks this time. I can not do diet drinks, I get skin rash for about 1/2 hour after. I did buy a Soda Stream adds bubbles to my water. I do not add the sugar to it. I like it best…

My last cheat day lasted 6 months. Just getting back again. I am going to try harder to stay on course. I have a big weekend on my feet and some running, so I will have to eat a little more but hoping to not go over by much. I find eating meals my mom cooked the hardest to stay in range, even when she knows I am trying to…

I love air popped popcorn and add Parmesan cheese to the top. It is like a life saver for me. If adding M&M's, they have to be Almond.

Your in the right place. So many of us need 1 to 2 lbs a week and need to lose 50 to 100 lbs. So it is going to take sometime. Not just a month or 2 but maybe years and then to learn to eat better for life. I find logging in my food every every day! The most helpful. Even if you over eat one day or one week. Even if it was…

I am checking in this week. I am down 2 lbs this week, so a total loss of 24 lbs. My sweet dog ripped her nail again so back to the vet and more rest again. It will be weeks till we can play agility. My calendar is so empty now. I would normally play agility with her 3 or 4 times a week, with classes or a trial. I see we…

Thank you Barbie for getting us started each month. I took the last 10 days off or so. Eating at other houses and dinning out more, I just wanted a rest from tracking my food. I know I had too many calories a few days and my upset tummy told me. It will feel good to get back to a plan. My dog and I are getting back to…

Merry Christmas everyone. I did not get my food into the computer for 2 days and just lost my Plus 85 day streak of logging in. I had some internet trouble. I still hand wrote it out. I lost 1 more pound this pass week. Nice surprise with all the cookies and candy around. My dog is back to work so we got to play agility…

Wow December already. I guess the Christmas season has started. I have worked hard at keeping track of how much food goes in. Hard to do with eating out and pot luck food. I really notice how quick I can be full, so less going in. I am down 1.6 lbs this week, so 229 lbs today, from 253 lbs . That is 24 lbs total lost since…

Kate you asked about the notes. I have just started to use them a bit. I have put some foods I can not find, or that I know I might not have it right, also some exercise. Yesterday I was a volunteer at a dog show, ate pot luck, walked a ton but no step tracker. Some of the other ladies say they do 14,000 to 22,000 steps at…

Thanks for the welcomes. I am near Edmonton, AB. It is cold and a bit windy today. We are to get a little warmer the next few days. Terry so sorry about your arm, I worry about falling on the ice each winter. I hope you heal quickly. Cathy in Canada

Hi Ladies, new here. In Sept I turned 50, a few days after my birthday I stepped on the scale. Crap! How did I gain that much. 253 lbs, So I started logging in my food, Been doing it 58 Days now. I have lost 20 lbs. I want to feel better and this is my start. Hope I can find some of your long term staying power and learn…

You can add me. I have been here just a week. I too do not want to totally deprive myself of all sweets, bacon, cake. Just keep it down and lose some weight. I hope to walk the dog more too. I had a cheese burger one night last week and had more butter popcorn than I should have. I did lose one pound this week so it is do…

I currently have one dog. I am using my dog as my main exercise, good for both of us. I would love more dog friends.

I added you. I am a mom of two boys and have a dog and husband. I am sure I would also sound a bit lame too. I have just started here but have been working at losing weight for a few months now. I need more support and the food tracking. I hate writing it out., but if I keep track I know I eat less.

My husband eats what he wants most of the time too. I have to want better for myself. I am doing this for me and no one else. I also have bad knees and hate the thought of running. I am walking with the dog. I am keeping track of my food. This is my first week here and so far I like the food tracking. Also know you do not…

I am in central Alberta. More snow coming our way.

I lost 45 lbs a few years ago and gained it plus more back. I am here to track my food intake and find support. just joined two days ago. The holidays were not to bad this year. I tried to keep the portions down. Now I need to really lose it. I want to walk the dog more and keep track of the food. This is not a News Years…
